I've been reading about the SCOTUS this morning (obviously, given my posting history), and it really is crazy and unnerving how they have rendered legal expertise totally useless. Knowledge of the law, constitution, and history gives absolutely no insight into how they will rule anymore.

Which the SCOTUS just absurdly ruled is inadmissible, and because the special counsel's appointment is itself unconstitutional. 2/2

My next prediction: Aileen Cannon will dismiss the stolen documents case (after as much delay as possible), on the grounds that evidence of post presidential retention of documents and obstruction requires evidence of the "official act" of stealing the docs in the first place 1/

The democrats could have been showing up for the culture wars and absolutely trouncing republicans for years. Instead timid boomers and silent generation establishment leaders who refuse to let go sat cowering like it's still 1992. It's maddening. 2/2

Rep. Melanie Stansbury is reading the GOP to filth for their bullshit distraction bills to protect, "the dignity of dishwashers," and "the freedom of refrigerators" (this is the GOP's own wording), by pointing out their hypocritical war on individual rights, and it's a beautiful thing. 1/

You can email the form to eoclass@irs.gov . Here's an example of a completed complaint, but it would be most effective if you put it in your own words.

Did you know that the heritage foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization for tax purposes? And that it's illegal for tax exempt charities to engage in political campaigns? It sure would be a shame if a bunch of people made their day worse by reporting them for their tax crimes:

District Judge Joshua Kindred abruptly resigned amid allegations that he sexually harassed and assaulted his staff. Since being bigoted and incompetent were prerequisites for a Trump nomination, there will be a lot more resignations like these if we don't go full blown fascist in November.

The one silver lining I can find with the Scotus's rulings on whether insurrectionists can run for president, and whether the president is a king, is that they are so plainly incoherent. They've ruled the constitution unconstitutional. 1/

Yaaassss! And Democrats, fucking campaign on this! Leaving the supreme court on the table in 2016 is a huge reason Hillary lost, and an even bigger reason we're in this post-constitutional nightmare now.

People say Trump should be asked about all his rapin', spyin', scammin', and lyin'. But considering that whatever he says is reliably the exact opposite of the truth, I think we should be asking him questions about cosmology, medecine, and physics. Where else could we find such epistemic certainty?

I hope Biden is next. There are worse people I wish dead much more on a personal level, but I think Biden dying would represent our very best chance of rejecting fascism at the ballot box.

In 2006, he pulled up a picture of his inbred Aryan family on the floor of the senate and boasted that none of them were homos. Anyway, let's hope all the bigoted insurrectionist republicans in the senate swiftly follow Inhofe's lead.

That's not fair. A lot of them are child molesters trying to point the finger at queer people to keep the scrutiny off themselves.

It's never been done here, but it's only norms preventing the formation of a coalition government. There's nothing in the law or constitution prohibiting it.
